Lifter - Grade 1 Damascus
3 Attachment(s)
I finally had a chance to take my new to me 10 gauge lifter to shot sporting clays this morning. It's a 10 gauge on a 2 frame with 30" barrels. I posted about this gun when I got it, the Damascus barrels are numbered to the gun.
I shot a mix of black powder and smokeless loads. It shot well with both. Chokes are tight, I think I probably did better with the black powder shells. I did make some crazy long shots with the smokeless loads though, which was fun. I had an orphan set of 12 gauge 2 frame barrels that fit the gun surprising well. I shot a round with those barrels and it did a good job breaking clays as long as I did my part. |
I think I remember that one from Gunbroker. I thought it was a grade 2 and wanted it to fill that hole in my grade 2 collection. Looks like a great gun and better than the Gunbroker pictures

Yes Mills, that is the one. The pictures I posted when I first got it were taken inside. These guns look so much better in natural light. The only thing I had to do was replace a firing pin.

Jay, nice gun. Was it that clean when you bought it or did you have to restore it in any way

I like how the RST boxes fit right in the case!!:cool:

Allen, That is just how the gun was when I received it. That was a one of my better GunBroker purchases, meaning no surprises and the gun was nicer nicer than I expected. The gun is tight with no mechanical issues and shoots very well.
Robert, Thanks I should have taken a picture last weekend when I had 1 box of RST shells and the rest of the space I had filled with all brass shells loaded with black powder. That looked good! |
I am looking for a grade 2 from that era, but all in good time
